i lost my toenail completely 5min into 2009 while on a night cycling expedition. pretty frustrated with myself. whenever i let my alertness down, i seem to incur some wrath of nature or sth. things like this normally dun happen when i'm on 'very cautious' mode.. like i dun get into accidents when i'm driving, even if it's my first time driving after so long. but wth is this, made me lose the chance to play squash the next day, lose the chance to go chinatown catch firecrackers on sat.. lucky the night cycling itself was fun. besides that stupid incident that has been leaving me swearing, it was pretty much fun.

rest of 1st jan 09 was spent at nathan hong guozhen's hse. great steamboat, great mahjong, great company, great tamil radio station. watched yc learn mahjong the hard way, and then we left for dinner at somewhere near lionel's place. dessert was some durians, rather expensive but definitely delicious. it was the best of the recent string of 1603 guys' outings for sure. 1603 brotherhood is really unique lo, thanks guys for coming, it really was enjoyable. photos are on facebook, i'm lazy and also technologically inadequate to link facebook photos to here. lol!

so what do i wish for in 2009?

i duno? better luck in my seemingly hopeless pursuit of tan junior? more improvement in my engin course? keep up with my close friends? stay injury-free as much as possible? more soccer with team wyf and also the 1603 guys? list seems to go on and on...

that's all for now then. everything above is a recap of how 1st jan passed. anyway might as well grab the opportunity now to thank my dear bunkmates, fun ruey, ting liang and prat for coming down to spend the day with me today when i'm so immobile, really appreciate it.
